It was such a fun day for the both of us. I shall never forget being with her and listening to her sweet voice and laughter. We did everything that day at the Fresno Fair. Now, as I look at this picture I get to feeling so sad. It is almost two years since she passed away. I feel as though she died today. Knowing she will never call me again and say, "Ma, guess what?" " I'm coming to Fresno this weekend to see you." I will be heading out to visit her grave soon. As I travel down the highways it will be so sad because my final destination will be the cemetery. It will never be exciting to travel and to her home again. The first time I went to visit her, I got lost. Took the wrong exit on the freeway and so I called her. I was embarrassed to call her but I finally got enough courage to make the call. She told me to just stay put and she would go down to find me. I did and when she showed up she yelled out to me these words, "My Mommy, always getting lost." And then she hugged me. That's the kind of daughter I had. She was so full of love for me. I feel happy knowing that. My Nettle, the most loving person in this whole world. I miss her so very much.
